Abstract: This paper presents a model for a land mobile flat Rayleigh fading channel, based on the manipulation of a white Gaussian random process. A random process with a specified second order statistics is generated. The cumulative probability distribution of the generated process is verified using the histogram procedure. The spectral shaping filters assure the power spectrum. The goal of the analog channel simulation is its utility in predicting the performances of various modulation schemes and soft decision decoding algorithms.
Key words Random process, digital filters, Doppler spread.
